Greece is all about democracy. Democracy is when citizens are allowed to vote for things they want. Greece has helped us a lot because with out them we would not have a democratic party. Sparta is really harsh but gives woman a lot more freedom. Athens are much nicer than Spartans but the women nearly get as much freedom.
